Checklist for Better Coffee Office
You do not have to suffer bad coffee days in your office anymore.
For most of us, coffee keeps us sane throughout the workday. It helps us stay awake, fosters collaboration and creativity, and helps us relate better with our co-workers. Statistics show that billions of dollars was spent on coffee in the past year.
However, it appears many of us do not pay attention to the quality of coffee that we consume.
It is time we changed that! Here is a guide that will help look forward to better office coffee.
Choosing the coffee beans
Better office coffee begins with the coffee beans.
Go for whole beans and grind them for the best fresh coffee. The other factors will depend on the budget and taste preferences. Visit your local roaster, if you want to get the small-batch of roasted Arabica beans.
Also, there are mail order coffee companies on the Internet that deliver various batch sizes of quality and fresh coffee beans at an affordable price.
How to store your coffee beans?
This is an area that is shrouded in myth and confusion. Most people will store their coffee beans or ground coffee in the refrigerator. Will it keep the coffee fresh for a long time? Sadly, No!
Coffee and moisture do not mix. When coffee comes into contact with moisture, it deteriorates making it go stale much quicker. Coffee is best stored in a cool, dry, and dark place.
Grinding the coffee beans
When you grind your beans the wrong way before brewing, your coffee will not taste anything close to the top-shelf coffee.
According to New York Times, grinding coffee in the required way gives the office coffee a quality lift.
When you open up the protective shell of the bean, the inside is exposed to air which causes it to deteriorate its quality within minutes. Choose a hand grinder or less sociable electric grinder with burrs. Stay away from the blades.
Alternatively, the bean-to-cup machines are quick, and mess-free way to enjoy your free coffee.
How to brew the coffee
There are various ways to brew your coffee. If you are not using a machine, stove top, Aeropress, and cafetiere are some alternatives. For those with machines, you can try the full-on-barista style or bean-to cup method. The choice depends on the budget and office preferences.
Disposing of the old coffee grounds
Before the old coffee grounds can find their way to the dustbin, here are few ways you can use them. Use them to repair any scratches on the furniture, compost use, or to keep off the slugs.
The tips might not make your coffee any tastier. However, you will enjoy your cup knowing their coffee grounds have a life beyond the cup.
